ALMOND COCONUT BARS
Serves: 2 dz.
Source: Simple and Delicious (March/April) pg. 50 (formerly Quick Cooking)
Effort: easy
Comments: Taste like your eating an Almond Joy
INGREDIENTS:
1 ½ c. graham cracker crumbs
½ c. butter, melted
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1 pkg. (7 oz.) flaked coconut
2 c. (12 oz.) semisweet chocolate chips
½ c. peanut butter
24 whole almonds (I used slivered)
INSTRUCTIONS:
In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and butter. Press into an ungreased 13x9x2” baking pan. Combine milk and coconut; carefully spread over crust. (This is the hardest part)
Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes or until lightly browned.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave on high for 1 minute; stir. Microwave 30-60 seconds longer or until chips are melted; stir until smooth. Spread over warm bars. Garnish with almonds.
Refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting.
